I will finish revising this book tomorrow.

Yes, I will.

And then, I will clean the wreck the house has become, and do the Christmas shopping I haven’t even touched, and dye out my brand-new grey hairs and pluck my eyebrows, and have some fun with my family, and eat something that requires time and effort to cook.

Before that, I will sleep.

   Sleep is a very, very good plan. Otherwise you might clean the Christmas shopping and dye the dinner.

   This is not relevant at all Julie, but thought it might amuse you as you toil away at the keyboard. Sarah Palin is rumoured to have been offered seven million dollars for her book… fancy being a ghost writer?

   I never want to be within 100 miles of that woman. But I agree very much with the article! Thanks for sending the link.

   (I’m reading Barack Obama’s book right now and THAT man can WRITE.)
